After the request to make a mini version of the Flake King 1000 for use with airbrushes, Flake King have gone one step further and developed two versions - the Flake King 550 Mini Gun and the Flake King Airbrush Adapter.
This Flake King 550 Dry Metal Flake Mini Gun is the smaller version of the 1000 Gun and is capable of running off an airbrush compressor. It enables you to apply your clear coat with your airbrush and then use the 550 Mini Gun to apply the dry metal flake.
The Flake King 550 has been designed to be an efficient way of applying dry metal flake. Save time, save material and save money! Simply add flake, open the flake valve, set the pressure and you’re ready to go.
It is supplied with a nozzle for easier blending of flake passes and also supplied with an 1/4″ to 1/8″ adaptor to fit to a standard airbrush airline.
It is ideal for smaller projects – bowling pins, skateboard decks, helmets, bicycle and motorcycle frames.

If you’re in the market for a dry metal flake applicator that doesn’t just spit flake out randomly then you’ve come to the right place. This gun doesn’t rely on pick up tubes that can cause flake “flurries”; it truly agitates the flake and draws it out consistently giving you professional results.
The dry metal flake is supplied in ready to use pots/jars that simply screw onto the gun – no messing about.
